In the design of buildings have to deal with such a variety of architectural designs that every professional gradually formed its own set of tools with which he chooses to work. Company Cigraph, developing software ArchiSuite, just aim at the solution of this problem: give ArchiCAD users the tools that they could "sharpen" on your own.
What is the ArchiSuite?
Before answering this question, it is necessary to define the concept of "add-on".
Additional modules - software components that empower ArchiCAD by adding new features. After installing the add-on module in the menu bar of the program ArchiCAD there is a new menu item, and through which a new function called. Calling the new function is no different from a standard function call ArchiCAD. Externally, it is the same ArchiCAD, but with extended capabilities.
ArchiSuite is a set of add-ons for ArchiCAD developed by Cigraph and allow architects to solve a variety of practical problems arising in the computer modeling of buildings. The "controls" as already existing modules and those that will be developed by the company in the future. Themselves additional modules are installed in a special folder, and the program ArchiSuite provides access to them through its own palette ArchiSuite. The needs of each user is unique; some modules are more, and others less. One of the benefits package ArchiSuite is that it can be customized to your needs.
ArchiStair is designed to simulate the stairs of the complex form, when because of the structural or spatial constraints, it is impossible to apply standard solutions. Module ArchiStair has a simple graphical interface with which the architect can build stairs any, even the most intricate form.
ArchiMap is an indispensable tool for working with floor plans, particularly useful when measuring the work of reconstruction projects. The dimensions of the premises can be entered manually or imported directly from a laser rangefinder Leica DISTO plus, connected via BlueTooth. The resulting plans after placement of Windows and doors can easily be converted to parametric 3D model ArchiCAD.
ArchiTiles allows you to design, visualize and calculate the layout of the tiles on a variety of surfaces: floor, walls and roof. For pickup can be used as tiles from the supplied libraries, and tiles of any shape (square, rectangular, polygonal, and so on)that users create on their own.
ArchiPanel allows very convenient to design floating floors and ceilings, using standard tools ArchiCAD Zones and/or Shading. Designs can be very different, from the simplest to the most complex.
ArchiMaterial facilitates the work with finishing materials. It allows you to create new materials and to organize them in a comfortable library with a hierarchical structure, to determine the most commonly used materials, and also provides a preview of the material by dragging it with the mouse on the structural element. Materials can be assigned to different effects, such as transparency.
For modeling:
ArchiTerra necessary ArchiCAD users who are engaged in landscape design, the vertical layout of the site or the simulation terrain of complex shape. This module allows you to create accurate 3D models of the terrain.
ArchiForma helps to create in ArchiCAD arbitrary 3D objects of any complexity. It can be a variety of architectural details and decorative elements, furniture, doors, Windows and much more. With absolutely no programming is required in the language of the GDL.
To improve performance:
ArchiTools similar to universal Swiss army knife: this is a set that consists of many useful and practical tools: building Windows of arbitrary shape, the Multiply function-Drag & Mirror on the facades and sections, arbitrary 3D rotation objects, drawing tables (with the ability to import text, import and processing of point clouds, making explication of the premises.
ArchiGiallieRossi - allows you to automatically (or semi-automatically) to generate overlapping each other transparent image (for example, the existing plan and reconstruction project) for visual comparison of them with each other. Structures to be demolished are highlighted in yellow, newly constructed red and immutable grey.
ArchiFacade helps to process digital photographs of objects in perspective, for example, from pictures of the facade in the future you can make an orthographic projection. Another possible use of this module is the use of photos for rendering in ArchiCAD.
ArchiSketchy allows you to convert ordinary drawing lines in expressive strokes of irregular shape, characteristic of pencil sketches by hand. Offers seven different conversion types for lines, hatches and labels. The resulting images look as if they are made with a pencil or pen and ink.
To control:
ArchiQuant allows you to quickly count the number adopted in the design of structural elements and amounts of materials required. Work in ArchiQuant does not require knowledge of programming language GDL and does not use the properties of objects ArchiCAD.
ArchiTime tracks the time spent by a user on the creation of the elements and operations, fixing the work in each viewport and for each working day. At the end of the project is given a detailed report (if necessary plotted), which can be printed or exported to a program word processing or spreadsheets.
